Dragon-Marked War God Chapter 3043 - Tian Fangjun Family

"The Jun Family of Tian Fang is not the top force within the Central Region Divine Land, yet they possess power that should never be ignored. To the north, they are viewed as a prestigious noble clan. Beyond that, the lineage has even produced Great Emperor Realm experts. What makes them truly terrifying, however, is the Ancient Will passed down through their bloodline. The Nine Reincarnated Golden Body cultivated by Jun Tianchou stems directly from this Ancient Will. Yet, since Jiang Chen destroyed one of his bodies, the technique is now incomplete, causing him immense agony. Were it not for this, he would have surely slaughtered everyone present."

Lan Luo remarked, her expression grave and solemn.

"What about you? Just who are you, truly?"

Qian Renji gazed at Lan Luo, consumed by curiosity. Lan Luo’s true background had always been an enigma, sparking deep suspicion. Given that Xuanyuan Qi clearly understood the Jun Family’s standing, he usually treated them with caution, and even practitioners like the Scarlet Flame The Enlightened showed her a measure of respect. This was far beyond the capability of an ordinary cultivator.

"Me? A defeated soul has no right to speak. Compared to someone like Jiang Chen, I am nothing but a mere splash in the tide," Lan Luo replied with a bitter, self-deprecating smile.

Qian Renji nodded in silence, refraining from pressing further. Still, Lan Luo’s intelligence and keen insight only deepened her quiet fascination about the woman's origins.

Meanwhile, Jiang Chen moved with calculated caution. His Ashura Sword Formation had finally reached completion after he eliminated those nine Fire God Guards.

"I wonder how long you intend to cower, you coward! Hahaha!"

Jun Tianchou bellowed at Jiang Chen, his voice echoing with deafening intensity. He hunted Jiang Chen relentlessly while his rival remained focused on setting up his trap with calm, deliberate movements. The moment for a lethal counterattack had arrived.

"Let us see which proves superior: your Nine Reincarnated Golden Body or my Ashura Sword Formation," Jiang Chen muttered, his gaze locked onto Jun Tianchou. Having wiped out the Fire God Guards in the blink of an eye, he let his suppressed fury finally break free.

"Your demise is near. Cease these futile struggles to preserve yourself. The Nine Reincarnated Golden Body is indestructible and absolute. Do you really believe this formation can bind me? Your theatrics are pathetic!"

Jun Tianchou scoffed with indignant arrogance. However, a flicker of uncertainty touched his lips the moment Jiang Chen triggered the apparatus. One hundred and eight Origin Divine Tools shimmered in place.

"Oh, truly impressive. I shall take all of these Origin Divine Tools for myself!"

Rather than retreating, Jun Tianchou pressed forward and soared above the formation. Jiang Chen fully engaged the Ashura Sword Formation, releasing a torrential, lethal rain of blades across the heavens. Instantly, Jun Tianchou’s Nine Reincarnated Golden Body was submerged beneath the onslaught. To his surprise, however, the technique remained unhindered by the sword formation.

"Is this really all your sword formation can do?" Jun Tianchou jeered with a cold, mocking smile. Yet, only seconds later, fractures appeared upon his golden form, causing his face to twist in sudden, sharp distress.

Perhaps Jiang Chen could maintain this for another minute, though the strain on his stamina was immense. He would ideally need to be at the Mid Hierarch Realm or higher to wield the Ashura Sword Formation with perfect mastery.

Even so, sustaining the formation for even sixty seconds was an incredible feat. Even Jun Tianchou, despite his Nine Reincarnated Golden Body, found it agonizing to hold out for even ten seconds before the cracks began to spread. It was clear that the endless rain of steel from the Ashura Sword Formation was devastatingly formidable.

Every passing second was agonizing for Jun Tianchou. After thirty seconds, he finally broke. His Nine Reincarnated Golden Body shattered into fragments, leaving him severely wounded.

Though he hungered to fight to the bitter end, the destruction of his protective technique left him reeling in a panic. He attempted to retaliate, but his strength failed him. Without the Golden Body, the prospect of resisting the terrifying formation seemed impossible. Even with his long spear clutched in hand, his aura was clearly fading.

"Get lost!" Jun Tianchou roared in a frenzy, but countless blades pierced through him. Unable to repel the storm with his weapon alone, he collapsed to his knees, utterly defeated before the observers.

"Jun Tianchou, you have been defeated once more. How truly pathetic," Lan Luo murmured. Jiang Chen stood tall, radiating confidence, though his Divine Origin Strength was nearly spent, leaving him momentarily drained of combat ability.

"It is not so simple to end my life. Jiang Chen, I swear you shall pay for this blood debt with your own soul one day!"

Jun Tianchou’s voice vibrated through Jiang Chen’s mind. The broken man scrambled up from the earth and vanished into the distance with lightning speed.

Even Jiang Chen was stunned by his ability to survive the Ashura Sword Formation.

"Jun Tianchou possesses the Nine Reincarnated Golden Body. Though eight clones remain, he retains eight lives. Because you failed to destroy his soul entirely, he will surely be reborn. It is a pity he escaped your reach," Lan Luo noted softly.

Jiang Chen exhaled in relief. Jun Tianchou was an incredibly difficult adversary; forcing him to lose a clone while suffering such deep injuries was an immense task. Their gap in raw power was significant, and Jiang Chen was now too exhausted to continue the assault. Elsewhere, the clash between Xuanyuan Canglan and Xue Liang was reaching an intense, terrifying peak. Since breaking through to the Late Hierarch Realm and gaining the inheritance of the Immortal Execution Great Emperor, Xue Liang was a completely transformed warrior.

Xuanyuan Canglan groaned, his Tao Tie form sweeping across the sky as if to consume the world itself. Both were locked in an equal, grueling standoff.

The Tao Tie was monstrously powerful, managing to trade direct blows with Xue Liang without yielding. Xuanyuan Canglan looked overwhelming, wielding the raw power of a Divine Beast. Xue Liang’s Heavenly Frost Sword struggled to gain an advantage; despite his Great Emperor inheritance, he had yet to fully master the techniques he had received.

Although Jiang Chen could no longer fight, he could still assist Xue Liang in locking down Xuanyuan Canglan’s movements while he replenished his own reserves. Together, they would eventually manage to suppress their foe.

Once Jiang Chen stepped into the fray to assist, Xuanyuan Canglan sensed the impending disaster and considered a retreat to ensure his own survival.

"Where is your honor as a hero? You clearly outnumber me!" Xuanyuan Canglan hissed through gritted teeth.

"As the saying goes, it matters not if the cat is black or yellow, so long as it catches the mouse in the end! Hahaha!" Jiang Chen let out a resounding laugh while Xuanyuan Canglan’s complexion turned ghastly. Faced with the defeat of Jun Tianchou and the duo standing against him, he knew he had no choice but to withdraw."
